Idle Issues, Rpm Range Issues, Car Turning Off Issues

Hey guys in a bit of a pickle with my skyline at the moment. Whenever you start it after it has been sitting for more than a few hours it coughs and splutters apon starting until you give it some revs and it comes good. I have done the following things to try to fix it...

- Spark pkugs

-Coil packs got coated in high temp silicon to prevent them arcing out

- Cleaned out my AAC valve thoroughly

Now it seems the top of piston 2 is wet and it isnt water or oil, so im guessing my injector is leaking. But I have had them all rebuilt about 8 months ago and the car has been off the road so lucky to have had 2 hours of running time since then.

Now my second issue is when you rev the car to about 3,000 rpm and hold it there it coughs and splutters but anything over or under by about 500rpm it doesnt happen. Then it has a rough idle for about 10 seconds after it returns back down to 900rpm (idle)

Do you think injector could cause both of these, or ecu issues?

Also randomly at Idle the car will turn itself off without any signs of stalling etc. Has a brand new battery. Im thinking it has something to do with my turbo timer as sometimes it wont shut my car off, you hear the relay click in the dash, and nothing happens.

Any ideas would be really good.

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
